Differentiation:

Varied Fluency
Developing Questions to support using language to describe one-step movement of 2D shapes in a straight line (left, right, up, down).
Expected Questions to support using language to describe one-step movement of objects that are facing a direction (forwards, backwards, left, right).
Greater Depth Questions to support using language to describe multi-step movements of objects that are facing a direction (forwards, backwards, left, right).

Reasoning and Problem Solving
Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Reasoning)
Developing Two shapes are given on a grid. Explain if a sentence describing their location to each other is correct.
Expected Two objects facing a direction are on a grid. Explain if a sentence describing a one-step route between them is correct.
Greater Depth Two objects facing a direction are on a grid. Explain if a sentence describing a two-step route between them is correct.

Questions 2, 5 and 8 (Problem Solving)
Developing Write a statement describing how one shape must move on a grid.
Expected Write statements describing how two creatures must move to get to an object on a grid (one-step movements).
Greater Depth Write statements describing how two creatures must move to get to an object on a grid (two-step movements).

Questions 3, 6 and 9 (Problem Solving)
Developing Use one-step directions to locate a hidden shape on a grid.
Expected Use one-step directions to locate hidden treasure on a grid.
